  The city of Venice, in Italy, is one of a kind. It is built on more than 120 islands, just off the coast. The islands are small and close together. The waterways between them are used as streets. They are called canals.

  In this watery world, people use boats to get from place to place. Gondolas to place, small boats that are moved with one oar(桨), were once the only boats used in the canals. But today motorboats make getting around faster; there are still lots of gondolas, though. Many visitors go to Venice all the year round. And they like to ride in the old-style(老式)boats.

  If you aren't going far in this city, it's easier to go on foot. There are hundreds of narrow footpaths. About 100 low bridges connect the footpaths and islands. But these bridges cause problems for the boaters. When the sea tide(潮)is high, the canal water rises. People in the boats must duck to fit under bridges.

(1)After reading the first paragraph, we can come to the conclusion that ________.

[  ]

A.all the buildings in Venice are help up(抬高)on seawater

B.there's no land in the city of Venice

C.the streets in Venice are all lined with waterways

D.nobody can be seen walking in the streets of Venice

(2)It is clear that ________.

[  ]

A.all the Venetian people ride in boats with one oar to get from place to place

B.gondolas are the only boats used in the canals

C.the ways of getting round in Venice are different from those in any other city

D.motorboats have taken the place of gondolas in Venice now

(3)Which of the following statements shows no difference between itself and the passage? ________

[  ]

A.All the Venetian people like to ride in the old-style boats.

B.Neither cars nor buses are used in Venice.

C.Citizens in Venice don't walk much.

D.Gondolas rides are much more expensive.

(4)Which of the following statements leads us to the conclusion that traveling around Venice by gondolas can be slow? ________

[  ]

A.Gondolas, small boats that are moved with one oar, were once the only boats used in the canals.

B.But today, motorboats make getting around faster.

C.But these bridges cause problems for the boaters.

D.People in the boats must duck to fit under bridges.

(5)The word“duck”in the last sentence means ________.

阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.

Dear Jose,

  

  You have asked me for suggestions on how to get along in the United States. It is difficult to give advice, but I have found the following“dos”and“don'ts”helpful.

  

  As a __1__, it isn't easy to find anyone to ___2___ in a big city. However, here are some suggestions. First get or borrow ___3___ ! Walk him several times a day !Americans love dogs and usually stop ___4____ to anyone with a dog. Then, try to eat in a cafeteria(食堂). People generally ___5___ the same tables and will sometimes talk to you ___6___ they see that you are a (an)___7____. Next, take your dirty clothes to a laundry(洗衣店)!It takes about an hour to wash and dry, and many people ____8___ there. They often pass the ___9____ talking to the other customers.____10____ ask for information from a woman, if you are a ____11___ ; and from a man, if you are a woman !It seems to get ___12____ results for a reason I can't understand. Learn the____13____“Please”,“Thank you”, and “You're welcome” before you come and use them all the time! They usually work like magic(魔术).

  

  There are some things you shouldn't. Don't tell the truth when people ___14____“How are you?” They only ____15___ the answer to be “Fine”. Never ask people their ___16_____ -- especially women! Everyone wants to be young. Don't tell heavy people they are ____17___. Tell them they are losing ____18___. Everyone here wants to be ___19____. Don't be late for appointment! When someone says six o'clock, ____20___ be there by six. Americans respect time and expect everyone to be “on time”.

  

  Above all, don't worry ! Just follow my advice and bring a 1ot of money and you will get along. I hope I have been of some help to you.
